• FLAMENCO IS…
One of the most beautiful types of music ever created.
• WHAT DISTURBS YOU
Giving the genre continuity by bearing in mind new proposals
offered by the times, but without giving up looking back.
• WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY
| |
|
“Flamenco
is one of the most beautiful types of music ever created”
|
That flamenco music moves the world at
the best theaters and within the best music programs; in
that sense we’re making progress.
• WHAT WORRIES YOU
That there isn’t a single flamenco program on public
television even though this music is the most international
one we have among many other things...
• A COMPLAINT
The provincialism which this genre is often treated with...
• A COMPLIMENT
To the nearly deceased Triana for so much art!!
• A LIE
That flamenco distinguishes between races, sexes, origins
and political ideologies; it’s much deeper than all
that!
• A TRUTH
| |
|
“What
worries me is that there isn’t a single flamenco
program on public television”
|
There’s room for all the feelings
there can be in a human being in flamenco. More truth than
that?
• SOMETHING TO REMEMBER
Pure Triana!
• A WISH
That Fernandas and Bernardas de Utrera keep on being born,
Chanos Lobatos, Valderramas, Camarones, Chocolates, Turroneros,
Cármenes Amayas, Pedros Peña and a great many
more so that this century stays alive...
• NOTES
Thanks to all the artists, intellectuals, film directors,
musicians of other musical disciplines, program organizers,
managers... of all time who have helped to dignify this
artform.
